That was definitely it.  I had been logging into the hostowner profile
but hadn't run newuser.  I ran it, and then the pull worked.  I did have
to use the -s sys/src flag, but anyway, all up to date.  So looks like
having a profile for hostowner is required.  Good to know.

When rebuilding, I did have to change the permissions on /mail/lib/gone.*
in order for 'mk install' to complete, though I suppose I could have added
bootes to the upas group...

but anyway, thanks all for the help!!
